Solfyldt suite med Sweet Skyline View

This building is a local gem with a captivating history. It was built around 1925 in Richmond’s oldest neighborhood, Church Hill. The first business located here was a dry goods & notions store. It has since been everything from a record store to a pool parlor. In 2018, after being abandoned for 8 years, we began the process of transforming her in to Church Hill’s mini boutique hotel, Eileen.

The renovation process was challenging but well worth it. After years of neglect, the foundation started sinking into the ground and the building developed a lean. It took two years to bring her back into action. Our team restored the foundation and preserved her historic charm. We added modern, luxe finishes that are impossible not to love. Despite all of that rehabilitation, the building held onto the tilt that she developed over the years, and that’s why we call her Eileen.

Eileen is a beauty. She now houses four separate vacation rentals, a juice bar, and a yoga studio. It’s the perfect place to relax, restore, and explore. We relish in hosting guests in such unique spaces, where each of you can add to the rich, ongoing history of Eileen.

There's nothing like the Eileen experience! Here, you'll get a taste of:

- Convenience: The walkability is abundant! There's a juice bar and a yoga studio on the first floor, a famous bakery (Sub Rosa) across the street, and award-winning restaurants, city views, and much more all within a few blocks. You'll get a quaint, downtown neighborhood that's just a short trip away from the hustle and bustle of city center. Parking is usually a breeze as well! If driving and exploring the city is more your style, we're close to all the major highways and only 5-10 minutes from downtown proper -- 20 minutes max to other city favorites like the Fan and the Museum District.

- Modern Luxury: We hate to do this to you, but you're never going to want to leave! Each apartment at Eileen is fully appointed and unique. You'll find leathered granite, mood-board-worthy tile, gorgeous fixtures, and comfortable but stylish décor. We tried to think of everything to make your stay an absolute delight.

- Concierge-like support: Our team is guest-centered and always prepared to assist you during your stay. Restaurant recommendations? CHECK! Need directions? DONE. Confused about the thermostat? Just let us know -- we've ALWAYS got you covered!
